Here's an old favorite with a new feature. You can now purchase the X-30 Dehorner with a choice of tip sizes. The regular 1/2" ID tip is for standard dairy and meat goat breeds. The 1/4" ID tip is perfect for mini breeds. Each dehorner comes with a 200 watt element and an 8' cord with 3-prong plug and maintains a steady 900-950º F heat with quick recovery in seconds between applications.
X30 tips are permanently installed and are not removable or interchangeable.

Now it’s possible to disbud anywhere without access to electricity. Designed specifically for use on newborns up to two weeks old. It’s ready to dehorn with only 4 minutes of pre-heating. The working temperature is adjustable up to 1100º F. Includes a self-ignition switch. (Butane cartridge not included - sold separately)

Disbudding is always our first choice. However, there are situations when it becomes necessary to trim the horns of a goat. If their horns have become dangerously long where they could get caught in a fence or accidently hurt a care giver, you could use this saw to remove the ends of the horn. There is a living core inside the horn that when cut too short, can cause severe bleeding. To avoid cutting too short, cut in small increments. Keep Blood Stopper (#17C) on hand just in case.
